super catamaran friet

Snacknieuws

De vetste website van Nederland

Wie krijgt de super catamaran in een half uur op?

De super catamaran bestaat uit een flinke portie friet, twee XXL frikandellen en afhankelijk van de besteller een flinke porties saus met uitjes. De super catamaran is geïnspireerd op de “normale variant” met een portie friet en twee standaard frikandellen. De normale variant dankt haar naam aan een vaartuig met twee rompen aan de zijkant.

18 minuten Oorspronkelijk moest de snack binnen twintig minuten opgegeten worden maar dat was voor veel snackers te gortig. Daarom besloot cafetaria Jimmy’s de tijd te verlengen naar 30 minuten. Het is verschillende personen al gelukt om de maaltijd binnen een half uur op te eten. Waarbij het record momenteel op 18 minuten staat. Ook de super catamaran proberen? Ga dan naar cafetaria Jimmy’s , Moleneindplein 4 in Vught.

Ziet er goed uit, maar 30 minuten is wel heel lang hoor. Dat gaat me best lukken binnen 20 minuten!

Silent-Yachts hails the age of the super-cat with 12 boats over 80ft in build

HET RECEPTENBOEK VAN NEDERLANDS DIS

Want traditie maakt eten nog leuker, wegwijs in frietkraam-land onze frietcultuur .

Er zijn eindeloos veel gerechten in een frietenkraam te bestellen. Dus wat wegwijs in frietkot-land is niet zo gek.

patatje flip

Friet wordt met van alles gecombineerd, daarnaast bestaan alle combinaties die maar denkbaar zijn met alles wat in het assortiment van een snackbar/cafetaria/frietkot aangeboden wordt.

In Zuid-Holland en het aansluitende stuk van West Brabant staat Patat of Friet half-om soms op de kaart, daarbij wordt over de gebakken friet een flinke schep piccalilly en fritessaus geserveerd.

In dezelfde regio vindt men ook Patatje Flip met halfom pindasaus & mayonaise.

Ook bestaat er een saus bestaande uit drie delen mayonaise en een deel hete chillisaus: dit wordt vaak Chillimayo genoemd.

Nog scherper is pure sambal. Maar sommigen willen een mengsel van mayonaise en sambal op hun friet : Friet Samurai . Daarbij heb je door de mayonaise eerst niet door hoe scherp het is.

supertje catamaran

FRIET SUPER bestaat in meerdere variaties en namen. Meestal is het een combinatie van Friet met een frikandel. In het zuiden van Nederland heet deze combi soms Supertje . Deze kan dan ook weer speciaal geserveerd worden. Maar dan wordt het zaak te vragen wat men er onder verstaat. Men kan de friet met frikandel geleverd krijgen met uiteraard fritessaus, currysaus en/of tomatenketchup, wel of niet uien , die heel fijngehakt zijn en zelfs nog pindasaus daarbij.

Rond Venlo kent men een heel andere variatie. Friet ALA is een frikandel met zuurvlees overladen met een friet speciaal.

Maar ben je voor de vierdaagse binnenkort toch in Nijmegen, moet je uitkijken of de frietenkraam daar “Waterfiets” of “ Friet Waterfiets” aanbiedt. Dat bestaat uit een bak met twee frikandellen bedekt met friet. Dan de speciaalbehandeling bestaande uit currysaus, fritessaus en uitjes en daarboven op nog een toefje friet. In mijn eentje krijg ik dat niet op, maar om me heen zag ik het zo naar binnen werken.

12 of the coolest multihull superyachts

The market for multi-hull superyachts has skyrocketed in recent years as owners begin to favour the high volumes and superlative stability on offer. Once the novelty of a small group of owners, a recent slew of multi-hull concepts and the success of shipyards such as Sunreef has confirmed that two and three-hulled superyachts are well and truly on the up. We remember some of the most ground-breaking multi-hull launches...

Inspired by Game of Thrones, the 66 metre shadow catamaran Hodor is a support vessel used to carry all the toys and tenders for her mothership. The vessel is fully custom and was designed by Incat Crowther. Hodor boasts five tenders, including a 17 metre chase boat and a 388 Skater powerboat with a top speed of 165 knots. Other toys include nine Jet Skis, two Yamaha ATCs, four Yamaha TW200 trail motorcycles and a three-person submarine.

More about this yacht

A true icon, Adastra was launched in 2012 by Australian yard McConaghy Yachts . With a length of 42.5 metres and a sleek Kevlar and GRP exterior, this space-age design is every bit as out-of-this-world as its name suggests. Made for exploring, an impressive 10,000 nautical mile range means she can cross the Atlantic twice before needing to refuel. A shallow draft of 1.2 metres allows her to access hard to reach anchorages and shallow bays too.

Yachts for sale

In 2011, Hemisphere was launched as world’s largest sailing catamaran with an LOA of 44.2 metres - and she remains so to this day. Built for American owners who had previously chartered a catamaran in the Caribbean, this British yacht was a bespoke project by Pendennis . Fully kitted out for diving, Hemisphere ’s port hull contains a dive centre capable of refilling both air and Nitrox tanks.

Yachts for charter

Royal falcon one.

The 41.4 metre Royal Falcon One is a quirky catamaran launched in 2019. She was designed by Singapore-based Royal Falcon Fleet in collaboration with F.A Porsche Design Studio and built in Sweden by Kockums. Accommodation is for up to 10 guests in five spacious cabins, including a full beam master suite with its own private deck space. Crew are housed in the two hulls.

Launched in 2015, Spirit is a 35 metre New Zealand Yachts powercat featuring Ken Freivokh interiors and naval architecture by Bakewell-White Design . A perfect example of how catamarans can help to maximise the living space available, Spirit has the interior volume you might expect from a 45 metre monohull. Her unconventional looks will make her stand out from the crowd in her new home of Australia, but Spirit is just one of many striking multihull superyachts to have hit the water in recent years.

Pilar Rossi

Formula One racing legend Nelson Piquet’s yacht Pilar Rossi was built in Turkey as a modest 33 metre Alucraft motor yacht. But his uncle, a Brazilian naval architect, helped Piquet convert her into a 64 metre sailing trimaran by adding outriggers and two masts. The reborn trimaran can accommodate up to 18 guests.

Galaxy of Happiness

Unveiled to the world in May 2016, Galaxy of Happiness is one of two 53 metre trimarans to be launched by Latvian yard Latitude Yachts . This multihull superyacht is built from a GRP and carbon fibre composite and is capable of a top speed of 30 knots. The interior, designed by Latitude Yachts and Jean-Jacques Coste , features an owner’s cabin and two guest cabins.

Launched in 2004, this Chinese catamaran from Pride Mega Yachts may look like a vision of the future, but the inspiration for Asean Lady is actually ancient. The twin hulled 88.15 metre yacht is based on the proa design that has been used for more than 2,000 years to build fishing boats in the Pacific region. Her stability was put to the test in December 2004 when she survived the Indian Ocean tsunami while moored off Phuket.

Flexibility is the key word that informed the design of the 33.7 metre Quaranta . Launched at Turkish yard Logos Marine in 2013, this catamaran superyacht features the kind of interior volume more commonly associated with a 40 metre yacht. All six guest suites are located on the main deck and the absence of structural bulkheads means that they can easily be reconfigured. This innovative system helped Quaranta to win the catamaran award at the 2014 World Superyacht Awards .

This 27.43 metre catamaran was first launched in 2004 as a fishing vessel, before being refitted in 2015 by Ocean Voyager and relaunched under the name Rogue . Sold in June 2018 she was renamed Basilisk . Ideal for long cruises, she boasts a maximum range of 7,000 nautical miles at 12 knots, while the eight-tonne deck crane means that all manner of superyacht water toys can be stored aboard.

110′ aeroyacht super catamaran.

Gallery Images

".$thumbs[$i]."

Conceived from the ground up the advanced Aeroyacht 110′ luxury catamaran is today’s most innovative performance yacht. As one of the largest composite catamarans in the world she is the first model and part of a sleek, new range (A95′, A110′ and A125′) representing the ultimate high-performance, supremely styled – 21’st century world traveler.

Designed by Gregor Tarjan – founder and president of Aeroyacht in collaboration with the renown multihull-naval-architect team of Morrelli & Melvin and Paul “Whirly” Van Dyke of Steve Fossett’s “Playstation” fame, the 35 knot capable Aeroyacht 110′ luxury catamaran characterizes the “next generation” of high-performance sailing vessels. No compromise has been made to create the fastest and most beautiful yacht afloat. The international press calls the A110′ the “Wally” of catamarans as her striking styling and a top class finish set her apart from the crowd. Recently voted by French magazine Design @ Home – famed designer Ora-Ito’s all-time favorite boat is our own Aeroyacht 110 catamaran.

Special emphasis on self sufficiency and ecological consciousness has been incorporated into conceiving this landmark vessel. A huge array of deck mounted solar panels, optional wind turbines and environmentally friendly building materials have been utilized to make this ultra-luxury yacht in tune with our times.

One of the most unique features of this super-shallow-draft cat is the fact that as part of the optional equipment, the A110 can be equipped with a personal exploration airplane. The 2 seater Icon-A5 amphibian sports-plane can be housed across a specially built aft beam platform and be used for sightseeing, shuttling guests to the yacht or in case of medical emergencies. Aeroyacht’s innovations include many firsts in the world of luxury catamarans such as a Grand Prix style performance rig, semi-flybridge-style twin cockpits, hammerhead -reverse bows and an optional Traxon light wall system. This listing is for a new semi-custom build with approx 28 months delivery from date of order.

Southern Wind Shipyard embraces the rise of the super-cat

In partnership with Southern Wind Shipyard
April 1, 2020

Southern Wind unveiled this arresting 27m/90ft performance catamaran in January, a project that hints at the strong future potential for superyacht-sized catamarans

southern-wind-performance-catamaran-90-concept-aerial-view

The naval architecture is by Berret Racoupeau, the La Rochelle firm behind Royal Huisman’s latest 35m/118ft sailing and power catamaran concepts.

The multihull market is the fastest growing marine sector, but only series production options or full custom boats have so far been available. The SWCAT90 targets the segment in between by offering a versatile platform whereby the design and engineering is in place, but a good degree of customisation is still offered to the customer.

The Cape Town shipyard is known for its go-anywhere 80-110ft semi-custom monohulls. The SWCAT90 concept, developed with Southern Wind’s long-term partner Nauta Yachts, has been designed to share these monohulls’ renowned qualities of performance, comfort and reliability.

southern-wind-performance-catamaran-90-concept-side-view

The space and speed potential of this carbon catamaran is particularly appealing. Olivier Racoupeau says it was a challenge to try to match the performance of a 100ft monohull, but in fact this cat should exceed it on all angles but at just 5º of heel.

The polars he showed us indicate it’s capable of 22-24 knots’ boat speed in 20 knots of wind (depending on mast type). Two sail plan options are available including a tall rotating mast, and the spec includes curved asymmetrical daggerboards and T-rudders.

Meanwhile, Nauta’s Massimo Gino compared the space and volume to a 39m/128ft monohull (Nauta was behind the 40m/130ft My Song project). Gino says the SWCAT90 presents 50% more interior space than an equivalent SW96 monohull (171m 2 compared with 113m 2 ).

In terms of accommodation, there are four guest cabins, including an owner’s cabin with opening platform to the sea. These double ensuite cabins are orientated around the centre of the boat where there is the least amount of pitching, and the two or three crew cabins are separated from the guest areas. The distribution of systems has also been carefully considered, to keep weight as central as possible.

Southern Wind thinks the SWCAT90 will also appeal to motoryacht owners seeking a greener alternative, thanks to its reduced dependence on fossil fuels. The yard’s chief naval architect Yann Dabbadie explains that the boat is offered with the choice of diesel propulsion or an electric hybrid system.

southern-wind-performance-catamaran-90-concept-layout

“It also allows the two main engines to be independent from the shaft line, resulting in a greater efficiency as generators,” he adds. “This will bring savings of both weight and space and the centring of machinery will realise better seakeeping and reduce pitching motion.”

Although the cat(s) will initially be built in infused carbon, the yard is also conducting its own tests on sustainable materials and resins, with a particular focus on reliability. Southern Wind has capacity in its Cape Town facility to build the cat alongside its monohulls, but the SWCAT90 is a three-year project as the yard wants to design it with the client.

Sunreef’s 140-Foot Super Catamaran Has a Gym & a Fold-Out Beach Club Area

By: Adam Santa Maria Published: Dec 14, 2021

One of the great joys in life is deluding yourself into shopping for things that are astronomically outside of your budget. Be it private jets, private islands, or hundred-million-dollar mega-mansions, the thought experiment of being a billionaire playboy with an infinite shopping budget is always a good time. That’s why it’s a blast to read about superyachts, an item so over-the-top opulent they make regular yachts look tawdry. For today’s installment of “billionaire wishlist,” we’re looking at the gorgeous, ultra-luxurious Sunreef 140.

A part of the Polish-based yard’s stout sailing yacht lineup, the Sunreef 140 is an all-new “sailing super catamaran.” It’s a fully customizable superyacht that boasts an immense living space, an aft cockpit design, and an optional Eco version with green propulsion and the shipyard’s proprietary solar power system , for the carbon-conscious billionaire. Simply put, the Sunreef 140 is stunning. The combination of smooth lines and sleek curves results in a beautifully modern aesthetic, while its 140-foot long size gives it the spaciousness and comfort of a superyacht. The Sunreef 140 boasts an alfresco lounging and dining space and a sizeable private beach to provide an unparalleled level of comfort while sailing the open sea. Moreover, one of the seacraft’s more notable features is its ability to lower its aft platform and two fold-out bulwark terraces to create a walk-around beach club area where passengers can play water sports or lounge some more. Its fully-customizable beach club connects with a gym featuring spectacular ocean views as well as a storage room for diving gear and water toys.

The Sunreef 140 can accommodate up to 12 guests and boasts a spectacular full-beam owner’s suite complete with panoramic views and private access to the lounging space and spa pool on the bow terrace. Sunreef has yet to release pricing information on the 140, but you can learn more about the vessel on the company’s website.

Everything you wanted to know about Moscow

When was Moscow founded?

Moscow appears in historical chronicles for the first time in 1147. The city was founded by Prince Yuri Dolgoruky of Suzdal , and the future megalopolis started with a fortress named the Kremlin.

We have already written about the facts and secrets of Moscow's Kremlin, and all the general knowledge you could possibly wish for – not to mention some great places to eat nearby.

However, initially, the land and villages close to where Moscow is situated today did not belong to the prince. It was the property of a boyar (nobleman) called Kuchka and was known as Kuchkovo. Kuchka fell from Dolgoruky’s grace and was sentenced to death and confiscation of all his landholdings .

Why was Moscow called ‘The third Rome’?

Actually it was the Orthodox monk Philotheus (Filofei) who called Moscow the Third Rome for the first time . He wrote: "All the Christian kingdoms have come to an end and have converged in the single kingdom of our sovereign," Philotheus wrote in one of the epistles. "Two Romes fell, a third stands, and there will not be a fourth one".

NB: Did you know that there are approximately 30 cities and villages named Moscow around the world ?

When did Moscow become Russia's capital?

Despite the fact Moscow was founded in 1147, it took almost another two centuries for the city to become the capital. It was only in 1380 that Moscow became the uncontested center of Russian territory for the first time.

In 1712, a few years before the Russian Empire was established, Peter the Great decided to move the capital from Moscow to St. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg remained the capital until the Empire’s demise following the 1917 Revolution. The Bolsheviks moved the capital back to Moscow in 1918 fearing foreign invasion.

Read about other places that once reigned supreme over Russian land s (spoiler: there were even six of them!)

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

Contrary to popular notions, Russia, and especially the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg are perfectly safe for tourists. Read our guide with four travel tips to ensure a safe journey: how to talk to Russian people, deal with emergencies and not get in trouble .

To support the contrary opinion, we have 10 reasons you should never ever visit Moscow (but we are not sure it works).

Read also the top 5 mistakes foreigners make in Moscow and try not to repeat them.

Is it expensive to visit Moscow?

There’s no point to lie – yes, it is. Moscow is one of the most expensive cities in the world, but still there are activities and tours you will not spend a single ruble on .

June 24, 2023 - Wagner head says group standing down

By Helen Regan , Andrew Raine , Sophie Tanno, Hafsa Khalil, Tori B. Powell , Adrienne Vogt and Kaanita Iyer , CNN

Moscow mayor confirms "counter-terrorism regime" in city and declares Monday a "non-working day"

From CNN's Katharina Krebs

Russian police officers, traffic police officers and servicemen block part of a highway entering Moscow on June 24.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed that a "counter-terrorist regime" has been declared in the city, according to a statement.

"The situation is difficult. In order to minimize risks, I, within the framework of the operational headquarters, decided to declare Monday a non-working day - with the exception of authorities and enterprises of a continuous cycle, the military-industrial complex, and city services," Sobyanin said on Telegram . "I ask you to refrain from traveling around the city as much as possible. It is possible that traffic will be blocked in certain areas and on certain roads."

According to Sobyanin, Moscow city services are on high alert.

Russian state media RIA Novosti reported Saturday that security measures are being strengthened at a number of places on the Moscow Ring Road. A checkpoint with a grenade launcher and an armored personnel carrier was installed at the exit from the Moscow Ring Road in the Yasenevo area and vehicles are being checked, according to RIA.

Earlier Saturday, the Russian National Anti-Terrorism Committee announced the introduction of a " counter-terrorist operation regime " in Moscow, as well as the Moscow region and Voronezh region.

The counter-terrorist regime includes, but is not limited to:

document checks
strengthened protection of public order
monitoring telephone conversations
restricting communications
restricting the movement of vehicles and pedestrians on the streets.

The latest Wagner movements: Equipment of the Wagner private military company is moving across territory in the southern Russian region of Lipetsk, according to the region's governor, Igor Artamonov.

Lipetsk is the main city in the region of the same name, and it is about 470 kilometers (292 miles) south of Moscow.

Ukraine claims to have reclaimed territory from Russia prior to Wagner rebellion

From CNN's Lindsay Isaac

Ukraine claims it has taken back territory in the east that was held by Russia since it annexed Crimea in 2014.

According to military officials in Tavria in southeastern Ukraine, Ukrainian forces have captured "territories near Krasnohorivka in Donetsk" and are continuing to advance, state media Ukrinform reports.

Another Ukrainian official claimed that Russian forces had been pushed out of the area about a week ago, but the information was not made public for "tactical reasons."

Ukrainian forces claim to have taken the area prior to the apparent Wagner insurrection but only announced it Saturday.

CNN cannot independently verify battlefield reports.

Analysis: Putin has only himself to blame as infighting engulfs Kremlin insiders

Analysis from CNN's Nathan Hodge

In the years leading up to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, a St. Petersburg-based businessman named Yevgeny Prigozhin emerged as a canny political entrepreneur.

Prigozhin and his companies served the interests of the Russian state, advancing Putin’s foreign policy in ways that were both useful and off the books.

Prigozhin’s relatively discreet public profile was his greatest asset. He bankrolled the notorious troll farm that the US government sanctioned for interference in the 2016 US presidential election; created a substantial mercenary force that played a key role in conflicts from Ukraine’s Donbas region to the Syrian civil war; and helped Moscow make a play for influence on the African continent .

All of Prigozhin’s activities gave the Kremlin a fig leaf of deniability. After all, mercenary activity was technically barred by Russian law, and Putin could always maintain that interference in US elections was merely the work of “patriotic” hackers.

And it also served Putin’s interest to outsource some of the dirty work of sponsoring armed insurrection in eastern Ukraine or holding territory in Syria . Wagner’s existence was not publicly acknowledged, and some of Prigozhin’s operations appeared to be partly self-funded, with various shell companies staking claims to oil and gas facilities and vying for access to gold and other riches.

But all of that changed with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. By giving Prigozhin free rein to raise a private army, Putin both unleashed the political ambitions of the businessman and surrendered the state’s monopoly on the use of force.

Read the full analysis here.

Wagner chief refuses to surrender after Putin says his actions betray Russia. Here's the latest

Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Russian President Vladimir Putin faces increased rebellion by Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin after the mercenary leader rejected surrender, calling the president "deeply mistaken" for saying his actions betray Russia.

In southwestern Russian regions, officials have cautioned residents to stay in their homes amid reports of Wagner equipment moving through the territories.

Here's the latest:

In the southwestern Lipetsk region: The region's governor, Igor Artamonov, has warned residents not to leave their homes "without an urgent need and refrain from any travel by personal or public transport," as they work to ensure safety in the city. Artamonov also said that equipment is being moved by the Wagner group across the territory. In Kursk , which borders Ukraine, Gov. Roman Starovoyt has plead with Prigozhin to "abandon his plans" to prevent an internal conflict in the country.
Movement in Voronezh: Following claims of Wagner control over military facilities in the city, Gov. Alexander Gusev has disputed rumors that military equipment is moving through the region, urging people to follow information from official sources, and asking the media to be "responsible" in posting information. Also on Saturday, a burning fuel tank at an oil refinery close to the city was extinguished. While the cause was not confirmed by Gusev, videos on social media have shown an explosion and fireball as a military helicopter flies towards it. Additionally, a munition that landed in the city during what appears to have been a clash between Wagner units and Russian forces damaged a number of cars, according to state media.
Welcomed by Ukraine: Some Ukrainian officials see the rebellion as a "sign of the collapse of the Putin regime." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tweeted on Saturday that Russia previously hid their weakness behind propaganda, but now the Wagner-inflicted chaos means they cannot hide it. "Everyone who chooses the path of evil destroys himself," he said.
Moscow sees support: Russian-backed leaders in four Ukrainian regions Russia claims to have annexed — the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic, the Zaporizhzhia region and Kherson — have expressed their support to Putin. In Russia, head of Russia’s Orthodox Church, Patriarch Kirill , in support of Putin, called for unity, asking Wagner fighters "to think again." In a call with Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Kremlin said the Turkish president pledged his " full support" to Putin.
Global leaders on watch: NATO, the European Union and world leaders including from France, Kazakhstan and Germany, have commented on closely watching the situation unfold. EU spokesperson for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Nabila Massrali told CNN: "What we are witnessing is an internal Russian issue." UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said they were keeping an eye on the events, and urged both Putin and Prigozhin to "be responsible and to protect civilians."
Meanwhile , Putin signed a law that allows the military conscription of citizens with a criminal record.
Missile attack in Ukraine: Ukraine’s air defense forces intercepted 41 Russian cruise missiles and two Shahed attack drones Saturday fired from the north, south and east, according to the Ukrainian Air Force Command, state media Ukrinform reports. In Kyiv, at least three residents were killed and more than a dozen injured in missile debris which fell on a 24-story apartment block in the Solomyanskyi district of the city, the Ukrainian Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko said on Telegram.

Ukraine’s forces will benefit from apparent Wagner insurrection, Ukrainian military spokesperson says

From CNN's Yulia Kesaieva in Kyiv.

Ukraine’s military will benefit from Yevgeny Prigozhin’s decision to turn his Wagner mercenaries on enemies inside Russia, a spokesperson for the Ukrainian military in eastern Ukraine told CNN on Saturday.

“The fact that Prigozhin took all his Wagner fighters into Russia now will definitely have an effect on our frontline,” Serhii Cherevatyi, spokesman for the eastern grouping of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, told CNN by phone. “They were the most effective fighters. Unlike them, the Russian regular army – which was defeated near Kyiv, Kherson, Kharkiv, Lyman and replaced by the freshly mobilized – are not as aggressive in their assault operations,” he added.

Cherevatyi said the withdrawal of Wagner forces from the long-fought eastern city of Bakhmut in May was “very demoralizing” for Russian forces.

“Paratroopers and infantry coming to take its place knew what to expect – they are going to the place of defeat, they have less armament than Wagnerites – and that battle-hardened, motivated to kill them, skilled Ukrainian units are waiting for them," he said.

He also said that his forces planned to exploit Prigozhin’s outsized presence in the media.

“All his messages where he talks disrespectfully of (Russian Defense Minister Sergei) Shoigu and (head of the Joint Group of Forces Valery) Gerasimov, some regular Russian army units, praises the Ukrainian leadership, voices close to real losses in battles for Bakhmut – these messages are all demoralizing,” Cherevatyi said.

Russian Foreign Ministry warns West against taking advantage of Wagner's rebellion

From CNN's Mariya Knight

The Russian Foreign Ministry warned Western countries against using Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin's rebellion to achieve what it called "Russophobic goals."

"Such attempts are futile and will not find a response either in Russia or among sensible political forces abroad,” the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

It said the apparent insurrection "prompts sharp rejection in the Russian society" and claimed that it "plays into the hands of Russia's external enemies."

"The adventuristic aspirations of the conspirators, in fact, are aimed at destabilizing the situation in Russia, destroying our unity, and undermining the efforts of the Russian Federation aimed at ensuring reliable international security,” the statement read. “We are convinced that in the near future the situation will find a solution worthy of the age-old wisdom of the Russian people and the Russian State,” it continued.

Putin and Erdogan hold call on Saturday

From CNN's Katharina Krebs and Mick Krever

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan speaks in Ankara, Turkey, on May 29.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan held a phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday, according to the Turkish President’s office.

During the meeting, the latest developments in Russia were discussed, Erdogan’s office said.

Erdoğan underscored the importance of acting with common sense and said Turkey is ready to do its part to resolve the situation in a peaceful and calm way, as soon as possible.

The Kremlin also confirmed the call, saying that Erdoğan pledged his “full support” with Putin.

“At the initiative of the Turkish side, Vladimir Putin held a telephone conversation with President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan,” the Kremlin said in a readout .

“The President of Russia informed about the situation in the country in connection with an attempted armed rebellion. The President of the Republic of Turkey expressed full support for the steps taken by the Russian leadership.”

Cars damaged by munition that landed in Voronezh, state media reports

A munition that landed in the southwestern Russian city of Voronezh during what appears to have been a clash between Wagner units and Russian forces damaged a number of cars, according to state media.

The munition landed in a parking lot in a residential complex on the outskirts of Voronezh. It’s not clear whether it came from a Russian helicopter or Wagner fighters on the ground.

"I was sitting on the balcony, drinking coffee, I was looking — people were pointing at the sky, there was a helicopter. Then — bang, I looked out into the yard, everything was in white smoke," a resident said, according to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. “I saw smoke from the the oil refinery, then I went to look at the car."

The resident's car was damaged. Other residents said the glass in their apartments was shattered.

Earlier , RIA Novosti reported that a Russian military Mi-8 helicopter made a hard landing in the Voronezh region, and one person was injured.

RIA cited emergency services. It did not disclose whether the helicopter was one of those apparently involved in operations against Wagner forces on the outskirts of the city of Voronezh.

Social media videos show at least one helicopter firing at ground targets on the outskirts of the city.

CNN’s Uliana Pavlova contributed reporting to this post.

US and Western officials caught off guard by escalation with Wagner chief, sources say

From CNN's Natasha Bertrand

Members of Wagner group sit atop a tank in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, on June 24.

United States and Western officials are being careful not to weigh in on the events unfolding in Russia because of how Russian President Vladimir Putin could weaponize any perceived involvement by the West in the escalating crisis, sources familiar with US President Joe Biden administration’s thinking told CNN.

Officials across the administration convened emergency meetings on Friday night to assess the events, which unfolded so quickly that they caught US and European officials off guard, the sources said.

While tensions have been steadily rising over the last few months between Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin and Russia’s Ministry of Defense, US and European intelligence officials did not predict that Prigozhin would move to storm the Rostov region with his forces, sources familiar with the intelligence told CNN.

“It’s so hard to tell how much was talk and how much was real,” said one of the sources. “The tension had been building for so long without anything actually happening.”

A European intelligence official told CNN that the “temperature had obviously been building,” but few could have predicted what Prigozhin was planning.

The official said the West will be watching how this plays out over the next 24 to 48 hours, after which supply shortages will likely start kicking in for Wagner forces.

It is not clear to US or European officials how far in advance Prigozhin was planning the attack.

One source familiar with Western intelligence said it appeared that it must have taken at least several days to organize; another source, however, noted that Rostov is very close to the front lines in Ukraine, so it may not have required much forethought.

Russias capital Moscow is a city full of history, that is perhaps only known for things like Red Square, the Kremlin and St. Basil’s cathedral.

Grand Duke Ivan III then asked the Italians to come and help restore the Kremlin to its former glory.
